Help with permissions?

Hey everyone,
my problem has to do with setting permissions.

I have created a queue called IT support, and a group called Company
Employees. The Employee group has the following rights on the group: create
ticket and show ticket. These don’t seem to be enough for a user in the
group employees to create a ticket as the queue name doesn’t come up in the
create queue section of the screen or the quick create widget. Am I doing
something wrong there?

George

Hello George,
Try granting at the Global Group level, “SeeQueue” right to Company
Employees, or maybe straight to Privileged group - it may save work for
next queues…

Hey there,
Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately that doesn’t help as at the end of the
day i want users in the specific group to only have access to their own
tickets and see no other ticket. And if possible to be able to see all
their requested tickets. Does anyone else know how to achieve this?

Thanks

Hi George,

I defaulted to granting a global right to the Everyone group to
CreateTicket and ReplyToTicket on the relevant queue (in your case
IT_Support). that should take care of your Company_Employees users
needing to create tickets.

As for the Company_Employees group users being able to only see their
own tickets. i saw a good suggestion on a post which was to do the
following:

  • don’t grant the ShowTicket right to Company_Employees group on the
    IT_Support queue,
    instead;
  • grant the ShowTicket right to the Requestors group on the IT_support queue

that way, they’ll only see their own tickets, even when they do a search.

I think you may also need to grant SeeQueue on the queue to the group.

If i did that, wouldn’t that allow the user to view all the tickets in a
queue?On Mon, Feb 23, 2009 at 5:16 PM, Stephen Turner sturner@mit.edu wrote:

No, it just allows them to see the queue. ShowTicket would allow them to
see all tickets.

That means that if a ticket they requested is not owned by them they
wouldn’t be able to see it right?On Tue, Feb 24, 2009 at 3:46 PM, Stephen Turner sturner@mit.edu wrote:

That would depend on your other permissions - why not give it a try and
see what happens?

Good luck,
